About Mungo and the Spiders from Space
Mungo was really enjoying his new book Galacticus and Gizmo Save the Universe. The dashing hero, Captain Galacticus, had just been captured by the evil Dr Frankenstinker and things didn’t look good. Mungo couldn’t wait to find out what happened next, but when he turned over, the last page was missing! Who would foil Dr Frankenstinker’s dastardly plan? Who would save the universe now? There was nothing for it - Mungo took a deep breath and jumped into the story . . . and his very own space odyssey! With a lot of courage and a little help from a Vroom-101 spaceship, Mungo saved the day (and the universe) and became the youngest ever member of Star Squadron.
